2CELLOS appeared on Glee!

This has been thrown around on my flist, but in celebration/revelation of its performance on this week's Glee, I gotta display it again in case anyone missed it: the sublime cello performance (and, let's face it, the slashiest you'll ever see) by Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser (a/k/a 2CELLOS) performing "Smooth Criminal":



Glee had a Michael Jackson-themed episode, and I found myself wondering if they'd do Smooth Criminal, thinking, "But nothing can ever top the cello version." Guys, they GOT SULIC AND HAUSER THEMSELVES TO PERFORM THE CELLO VERSION IN THE SHOW. I died of joy.

Wow! This almost makes me want to watch Glee again! Is it youtubular?

Also, do you know Lim's Smooth Criminal Sherlock vid (http://blip.tv/lim/underground-4838186)?

I have never heard this nor heard of this. So glad I clicked!

...is there a 2CELLOS fandom? Can I request it for Yuletide?

As a professional cello major yes, I have seen this many times.

wowie! I'll need to get their music! This video was amazing, and made me think of these guys (http://vimeo.com/26361748), who I saw while walking through the Boston public garden a few months back.

I think Glee has markedly improved this season with the music and how they use it to tell stories.

All of this just makes me think of Cello Wars.

They're not quite as hot as Sulic and Hauser though.

I had seen this video before -- someone had linked to it as "the Supernatural AU where Sam and Dean are cellists" :)

That was the one element of last week's Glee episode that I really, really enjoyed. In retrospect, I should have realized the dual-cello thing was too creative to have been original to the show, haha. Good on them for showcasing such a talented duo, though!

Wasn't that great? Best moment of the whole season, if not the whole show! I found them on youtube after and happily listened to tons of their stuff.

Totally cool! Thank you for sharing it!

Wow! The broken bowstrings are totally standing in for their subconscious urge to tear each other's clothes. This clip is positively obscene. I love it!

That was amazing, the music gave me goosebumps. I loved the back and forth between the cellos and the intensity with which they were playing. And you know what, it *was* slashy! Thank you so much for sharing this video!

Ok, so I cannot be the only one at the end who wanted to see them make up suddenly and kiss once that awful, poaching woman was out of the way...
